Hi there,

Just logged onto the CFV page and today is the anniversary of the raid, sadly of course the memoriam page has a long list of those who did not make it back, just wanted to mention,

Yes John, a horrendous list of casualties. The site has a great feature article on the raid and some very good images - see HERE
The very last image is quite chilling - taken just before HMS Campbeltown blew up.
